Description

The following code:

from qdrant_client import QdrantClient

client = QdrantClient('http://localhost:6333')
collection_name = 'test'

offset = 0
while offset is not None:
    response, offset_id = client.scroll(collection_name=collection_name, offset=offset, limit=1000)
    offset = offset_id

    for r in response:
        r.payload['random'] = random  # Put here whatever values you want

        client.set_payload(
            collection_name=collection_name,
            payload=r.payload,
            points=[r.id]
        )

Gives an error in Windows if the collection has a lot of points (~40.000 in this test) with sockets:
OSError: [WinError 10048] Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/networ address/port) is normally permitted

With grpc it works fine

Research direction

Start with the QdrantClient REST path exercised by scroll and set_payload, reproducing the example on Windows against a large collection. Compare its socket behavior with the working gRPC path. Done means repeatedly scrolling and updating roughly 40,000 points no longer raises WinError 10048.
